Actually, I believe you can do something like

    \includepdf[trim=0 20mm 0 0, clip, ...]{...}

to cut off 20mm from the bottom.

Depending on where you place your page numbers in the scores, this can enable you to cut them off when including the pages in your book.

One limitation to keep in mind is that you must not put lilypond page numbers in the scores, because pdfpages needs to write its own page numbers that correspond to the ToC.

        I should add that one issue with this method is with
        optimizing page turns.
        E.g., if you were relying on a piece to start on an odd page
        but the prior piece in the book ended on an odd page, you'd
        end up having to insert a blank page in order to preserve your
        intended page turn. For large books this can become onerous to
        manage.
        I'm hoping someone can enlighten me with a better way.

        thanks.
